I am obsessed with highlighters, like every other makeup obsessive at the moment, and Sleek are killing it with their highlighting palettes. As soon as I saw Jaclyn Hill talk about this palette on her Snapchat, I knew I had to have it in my life. I ended up going to two different Boots and Superdrug stores before I was able to track it down and I grabbed the last one!
This is the brand new Cleo's Kiss Highlighting Palette from Sleek Makeup. I have raved about how much I love my Solstice Highlighting Palette from Sleek but I think my love for this one may have topped Solstice! Like the Solstice Palette, it comes in gorgeous gold mirrored packaging, a bloggers nightmare to photograph, with four pans of creams and powder highlighters inside. Inside the compact is a mirror so you can apply on the go if you need to as well as a small brush.
In Cleo's Kiss are two baked powder highlighters as well as two cream versions. I am not usually a huge fan of cream highlighters but I have been really surprised with how much I like the two included in this palette as they are so creamy but they don't have an oily feeling like some cream formula highlighters do. This palette has four highlighting shades which are going to help you achieve that perfect glowy look with a golden glow. I have a very light skin-tone and wasn't sure if I would be able to wear one of the shades in this palette but surprisingly it looks great if I do say so myself!
If you are on a budget, you really can't go wrong with these highlighting palettes at £10 each, I picked mine up on the 2 for £12 deal in Superdrug but in Boots it wasn't included in the offer weirdly. As you can see from the swatches all four of the shades have amazing pigmentation and they apply beautifully to my cheekbones. My favourite shade at the moment has to be the last shade in the swatch photo, it gives the cheekbones such a lovely sheen and glow that I can't get over! I also like to use this shade on my cupids bow and down my nose. For an intense glow, you could apply one of the cream shades and set it with one of the powders, I have done this a couple of times and I love the sheen it gives the cheek bones - an out of space seen highlight!
I saw on Snapchat (I can't remember who) use this palette on the eyes and it looked incredible - just imagine that lightest powder shade as a inner corner highlight!! The bronzey shade (first one in the swatch) would look gorgeous on the lid, I will have to try this out soon and report back.
